R help - Aug 2003 - adding to Trellis plot

Hello everyone
(Im not sure if i already posted this problem)
I have grouped data and i used a Trellis plot to show the curve of a fitted 
model for each group. Additionally i have a vector whose values are the 
highest points the curve can reach (the curve rises exponetially). Each 
value of the vector is the corresponding highest point for each group/plot. 
Now i want to show this highest point by adding to each plot a horizontal 
line. Obviously i should use panel.abline or something equal. How can i tell 
R that each value of this vector corresponds to the different plots in the 
Trellis plot?

Thanks a lot for answers

Do you mean group or panel? You say "adding to each plot", so I guess
you
mean panel.

I would use the subscripts argument to xyplot. If subscripts=TRUE in the
arguments to xyplot (and in some other cases), the panel function is
passed an argument called subscripts, a vector of integer indices
indicating which points are about to be plotted. This lets you work out
which rows of your data frame are about to be plotted, which should let
you print your extra graphical elements.

mydf <- data.frame(x=rnorm(20),y=rnorm(20),t=rbinom(20,1,.5))

xyplot(y~x|t, data=mydf, subscripts=TRUE,
       panel=function(x,y,subscripts,...) {
         panel.xyplot(x,y)
         print(subscripts)
         currentpanel <- unique(mydf$t[subscripts])
         print(currentpanel)
         panel.abline(something to do with currentpanel)
         })
